2
3 * util.c: Use specific check for HAVE_SYS_STAT_H.
4
Theodore Ts'ocd130a02001-05-05 05:43:23 +000052001-05-05 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
6
Theodore Ts'o609c9d02001-05-05 06:45:05 +00007 * fsck.8.in: Add explicit language to describe how options get
8 passed to filesystem-specific checkers.
9
Theodore Ts'ocd130a02001-05-05 05:43:23 +000010 * badblocks.8.in: Fixed man page to describe the first optional
11 parameter to badblocks as last_block, instead of
12 num_blocks. (Debian bug #87216)
13
14 * badblocks.c: Change the blocks_count variable to be last_count,
15 which is a more accurate description of the variable.
16
Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +0000172001-05-03 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
18
Theodore Ts'o348e43d2001-05-03 14:43:43 +000019 * e2image.8.in: New manual page
20
21 * badblocks.8.in, e2label.8.in, mke2fs.8.in mklost+found.8.in,
22 tune2fs.8.in: Update location of e2fsprogs to be
23 http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
24
25 * dumpe2fs.c (main): Add new flag, -i, which will allow dumpe2fs
26 to dump out the filesystem statistics from an ext2 image
27 file.
28
Theodore Ts'o095b4592001-05-03 13:33:11 +000029 * e2image.c (main): Fix format of e2image to be easier to be parse
30 by ext2fs_open().
31
Theodore Ts'o45d70862001-05-01 15:44:37 +0000322001-05-01 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
33
34 * fsck.c (device_already_active): If we're not able to determine
35 the base device, we should assume that the device is
36 already active in order to force serialization.
37
Theodore Ts'oce57f142001-04-26 04:25:39 +0000382001-04-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
39
40 * tune2fs.c (parse_tune2fs_options): Interpret -c 0 as -c -1 (for
41 backwards compatibility with older kernels). -c 0 makes
42 more sense to users.
43
Theodore Ts'o4d0f2282001-04-23 20:58:03 +0000442001-04-22 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
45
46 * tune2fs.c (remove_journal_device): If the force flag is given,
47 tune2fs will remove the journal device information from
48 the superblock even if tune2fs failed to open the journal
49 device or otherwise other failed to remove the filesystem
50 from journal device.
51 (parse_tune2fs_options): Fix -j option so that it works
52 (it was missing the open_flag being set to EXT2_FLAG_RW).
53 (main): Accept "-U clear" to set a null UID.
54
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +0000552001-04-21 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
56
Theodore Ts'o48015ce2001-04-22 03:58:32 +000057 * mke2fs.8.in: Manual page cleanups. Temporarily comment out the
58 documentation for the extern journal device support.
59
Theodore Ts'ob10fd5e2001-04-22 03:47:23 +000060 * mke2fs.c (usage): Remove the deprecated -s option from the usage
61 message.
62
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +0000632001-04-16 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
64
Theodore Ts'o2103ea72001-04-21 20:53:43 +000065 * mke2fs.c (main): Add better explanation about when the
66 filesystem will be checked after it is created.
67
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +000068 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Remove code which allowed a bare
69 number to be treated as a journal size.
70
Theodore Ts'o1d08d9b2001-04-17 01:01:49 +000071 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Add newlines to error messages so that they
72 look nicer.
73
Theodore Ts'od6a27e02001-04-17 02:34:41 +000074 * mke2fs.c (create_journal_dev): Call
75 ext2fs_create_journal_superblock() first, so if it's going
76 to error out, the user finds out before waiting for the
77 entire device to get zero'ed.
78
Theodore Ts'o2537b6d2001-03-26 20:07:13 +0000792001-03-26 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
80
81 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Change man paegs to document that the
82 journal must be bewteen 1024 and 10,240 file system
83 blocks.
84
85 * mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c: Change to use figure_journal_size()
86
87 * util.c, util.h (figure_journal_size): Change
88 journal_default_size into routine which also converts the
89 requested journal size into filesystem blocks and does
90 bounds checking to make sure the journal is sized
91 reasonably. Renamed function to journal_default_size.
92 (parse_journal_opts): Remove bounds check for the journal
93 size, since this is now done in figure_journal_size, and
94 based on the number of filesystem blocks, as opposed to
95 using the absolute size of the journal.
96
Theodore Ts'o93345d12001-02-17 06:09:50 +0000972001-02-17 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
98
99 * mke2fs.c (main): Flush out the "creating journal" message.
100 Also handle the case where the default journal size
101 returns zero blocks == no journal. Print out how often
102 the filesystem will be checked.
103
Theodore Ts'oc5423c52001-02-08 05:45:17 +00001042001-02-08 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
105
106 * e2image.c (main): Add code to write the e2image header.
107
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +00001082001-02-07 Theodore Tso <tytso@valinux.com>
109
Theodore Ts'obe4244b2001-02-08 03:28:18 +0000110 * tune2fs.8.in: Update man page to reflect that 2.0.39 supports
111 sparse_super.
112
Theodore Ts'o8b164f92001-02-08 03:24:18 +0000113 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fix fencepost error when calculating the
114 range of inode table blocks. Add '0x' to values printed
115 in hex.
116
Theodore Ts'offf18b42001-02-08 03:06:43 +0000117 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Define the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to force the
118 use of the LFS so that lstat will work on large files.
119
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +00001202001-01-17 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
121
Theodore Ts'odc2ec522001-01-18 01:51:15 +0000122 * tune2fs.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.8.in, mke2fs.8.in: Change user
123 interface so that -J is used to specify journal options,
124 and -j is used to request creation of a journal using
125 default values. (This is a UI change, but we haven't done
126 a formal release, and it makes things much more consistent
127 with the rest of the options out there.)
128
129 * tune2fs.c: Add support for removing a filesystem from an
130 external journal; we correctly remove the filesystem UUID
131 from the external journal's filesystem list.
132
Theodore Ts'o5683e6e2001-01-18 01:47:48 +0000133 * util.h, util.c (journal_default_size): New function from Andreas
134 Dilger to calculate an appropriate default journal size
135 given a filesystem size.
136
137 * util.c (parse_journal_opts): Allow the creation of a journal as
138 small as 1MB.
139
Theodore Ts'o02088862001-01-18 01:44:19 +0000140 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Use s_first_data_block
141 to find the correct block to read the journal superblock.
142
Theodore Ts'o16ed5b32001-01-16 07:47:31 +00001432001-01-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
144
145 * tune2fs.c: Changed the external journal code so that it simply
146 adds a filesystem to a journal; the journal must have bene
147 created via "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX".
148
149 * mke2fs.c: Add support for creating an external journal device by
150 using the command "mke2fs -O journal_dev /dev/XXX". Also
151 changed the external journal code so -j device=/dev/XXX it
152 simply adds a filesystem to that journal; the journal must
153 have been created via separate step.
154
155 * dumpe2fs.c (print_journal_information): Add support for dumping
156 information about an external journal device.
157
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +00001582001-01-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
159
Theodore Ts'o44c09c02001-01-14 17:02:09 +0000160 * mke2fs.c: Add new filesystem types, largefile and largefile4,
161 for those filesystems whose average inode size is 1MB and
162 4MB, respectively. Allow the inode ratio specified to be
163 has high as 4MB. Make the s_max_mount_count vary between
164 20 and 40, to avoid needing to check all of the
165 filesystems at the same time. Add some random jitter to
166 the s_max_mount_count value so that we avoid checking all
167 of the filesystems at the same time when we reboot.
168
Theodore Ts'o08dd8302001-01-14 16:25:58 +0000169 * tune2fs.8.in: Add description of the -j option.
170
Theodore Ts'o4055ef72001-01-14 16:11:14 +0000171 * tune2fs.c (add_journal): Minor fixes from Andreas Dilger. Flush
172 stdout after printing in-progress message.
173 (main): Exit with status code 1 if we failed to determine
174 the mount status of the device.
175
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +00001762001-01-11 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
177
Theodore Ts'oc8c071a2001-01-11 16:08:23 +0000178 * e2image.c, mke2fs.c, mklost+found.c, tune2fs.c, util.c,
179 uuidgen.c: Fix gcc -Wall complaints, including one bug in
180 tune2fs caused by a block automatic shadowing version of
181 the variable we really wanted to use, which broke the
182 logic testing to see if the filesystem was mounted.
183
Theodore Ts'o4d404542001-01-11 16:04:59 +0000184 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use ext2fs_sync_device() to sync and
185 flush the device.
186
Theodore Ts'odfcdc322001-01-11 15:38:00 +0000187 * mke2fs.c: Change ino_t to ext2_ino_t.
188
Theodore Ts'o83238152001-01-09 00:16:26 +00001892001-01-08 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
190
191 * Makefile.in, tune2fs.c: Move e2label functionality into tune2fs,
192 using argv[0] as a dispatch. This allows e2label to be
193 (more) safely used on mounted filesystems.
194
Theodore Ts'o8820c792001-01-06 04:20:03 +00001952001-01-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
196
197 * get_device_by_label.h (get_volume_label_by_spec): Add function
198 prototype.
199
200 * get_device_by_label.c: Use string_copy() instead of strdup() for
201 portability's sake. Fix a few other gcc -Wall
202 complaints.
203
204 * fsck.c (string_copy): Export string_copy() extern.
205
206 * badblocks.c: Fix various gcc -Wall complaints, including
207 an incorrect reference to sync in flush_bufs().
208
Theodore Ts'o63985322001-01-03 17:02:13 +00002092001-01-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
210
211 * tune2fs.c (update_feature_set, add_journal): Moved to separate
212 functions. Added ability to add and remove the journal
213 while the filesystem is live. Added support for setting
214 a time-based UUID. Removed zero-initialized static variables.
215
216 * mke2fs.c, util.c, util.h (strcasecmp, proceed_question,
217 check_plausibility, parse_journal_opts, check_mount):
218 Moved functions to util.c so they can be used by tune2fs.
219
220 * mke2fs.c (main): Change ext2fs_add_journal_fs() to
221 ext2fs_add_journal_inode() to reflect function renaming.
222
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +00002232001-01-01 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
224
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000225 * mke2fs.c, e2image.c: Removed references to struct ext2fs_sb to
226 struct ext2_super_block.
227
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000228 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support to allow HAS_JOURNAL flag to be
229 cleared, but only if the filesystem is unmounted or
230 mounted read-only. Changed struct ext2fs_sb to struct
Theodore Ts'oef9abe52001-01-01 15:31:53 +0000231 ext2_super_block, and cleaned up old code which was needed
232 for old versions of ext2_fs.h (not needed since we're
233 using our own version now).
Theodore Ts'ob21e38a2001-01-01 15:26:58 +0000234
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +00002352000-12-31 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
236
Theodore Ts'od4cf2fc2000-12-31 14:09:38 +0000237 * fsck.c (check_all): Call interpet_device to resolve LABEL= and
238 UUID= right away so that the device_already_active() logic
239 can do the right thing. Also cleaned up the the root
240 filesystem logic checking code; fixed up a logic bug with
241 the parallel_root option.
242
Theodore Ts'of10748d2000-12-31 13:55:14 +0000243 * lsattr.1.in: Add pointer to chattr man page for definition of
244 the file attributes.
245
246 * lsattr.c (list_attributes): Minor cleanup to smooth out logic
247 flow. Also removed static initialized variables to zero.
248
Theodore Ts'o9a718842000-12-31 13:48:12 +0000249 * chattr.c (decode_arg, get_flag): Use a table-driven method for
250 decoding the ext2 file flags character options. Add
251 support for the journaled data flag.
252
253 * chattr.1.in: Document the -j/+j/=j flag.
254
Theodore Ts'o16ad3332000-12-31 03:21:56 +00002552000-12-30 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
256
257 * mke2fs.8.in: Minor clarity edit.
258
259 * mke2fs.c (usage): Document the -j option.
260 (main): Print the number blocks used in the journal.
261
Theodore Ts'ob9fd8c12000-12-29 03:10:45 +00002622000-12-28 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
263
264 * base_device.c (base_device): Add support for DAC960 device
265 names.
266
267 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Handle the case where
268 base_device doesn't know how to interpret the device name,
269 instead of core dumping.
270
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +00002712000-12-09 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
272
Theodore Ts'od48755e2000-12-09 14:36:04 +0000273 * mke2fs.c (main, parse_journal_opts): Add support for creating V1
274 superblocks. We now pass in a journal_flags field to the
275 journal creation routines for this purpose.
276
277 * mke2fs.c: Remove zero initializers to save a few bytes from the
278 executable image. (Are we excited yet?)
279
Theodore Ts'o74a74d22000-12-09 14:33:29 +0000280 * findsuper.c: And non-subtle copyright licensing restriction to
281 get Yann to remove this program from the Debian package. :-)
282
Theodore Ts'o793e27d2000-12-03 06:33:56 +00002832000-12-03 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
284
285 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Change to use new version of
286 base_device() which now returns dynamically allocated
287 memory.
288
289 * base_device.c (base_device): New version moved from fsck.c which
290 now understands ugly devfs names. (Debian bug #65181)
291
292 * base_device.tst: Test case for base_device.c
293
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +00002942000-12-02 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
295
Theodore Ts'o2d091792000-12-02 07:03:32 +0000296 * fsck.8.in: Add clarification that filesystems with a fs_passno
297 of 0 are skipped with the -A option. (Debian wishlist/bug
298 #63442)
299
Theodore Ts'oe9f9dd82000-12-02 06:35:07 +0000300 * fsck.c (wait_one): When we let a new fsck take control of the
301 console to display the progress bar, set FLAG_PROGRESS to
302 so that fsck knows not to start new processes during an
303 fsck pass with the progress bar. (Should fix debian bug
304 #65267)
305
Theodore Ts'oe1c6b2f2000-12-02 06:19:33 +0000306 * tune2fs.8.in: Add clarifying statement about converting user and
307 group names to uid's before storing them in the
308 superblock. (Debian bug #67446)
309
Theodore Ts'o8ddaa662000-11-17 04:55:24 +00003102000-11-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
311
312 * mke2fs.c(main): Expand the -j option so that it parses
313 option=argument style options, and add support for
314 creating filesystems with external journals.
315
316 * mke2fs.8.in: Document new syntax for the -j option.
317
Theodore Ts'o72ed1262000-11-12 19:32:20 +00003182000-11-05 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
319
320 * e2image.c, Makefile.in: New program which saves ext2 metadata to
321 a file for people who need a last-ditch saving throw.
322
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +00003232000-10-24 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
324
Theodore Ts'of6f65832000-10-25 03:01:37 +0000325 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Applied Andreas Dilger's patch to make the -r -s
326 handling a bit more sane. (Even though -s is deprecated
327 at this point.)
328
Theodore Ts'o0056be12000-10-25 02:24:33 +0000329 * get_device_by_label.c: Apply fix from Erik Troan to support 16
330 character labels.
331
Theodore Ts'o43819662000-10-25 02:06:09 +0000332 * fsck.c (device_already_active): Add a special case check for MD
333 devices, so we don't try to check them in parallel with
334 other devices.
335
Theodore Ts'o85ef4ae2000-10-24 19:33:45 +0000336 * mke2fs.c (PRS, main), mke2fs.8.in: Add support for the -j
337 option, which builds an ext2/3 filesystem with an ext3
338 journal.
339
Theodore Ts'oe294cf22000-10-24 18:41:44 +00003402000-10-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
341
342 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix really stupid typo which gcc 2.95
343 didn't catch.
344
Theodore Ts'o3f1e9a52000-09-12 21:21:52 +00003452000-09-12 <tytso@valinux.com>
346
347 * fsck.c: Add base device definitions for hd[e-h], for those
348 systems with four IDE interfaces.
349
Theodore Ts'od7e39b02000-09-11 17:01:35 +00003502000-09-11 <tytso@valinux.com>
351
352 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Fix error message printed when zap_sector
353 fails.
354
355 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): Fixed format string bug when printing
356 the inode table location in non-hex format.
357
Theodore Ts'o556ccbd2000-08-20 19:11:05 +00003582000-08-20 <tytso@valinux.com>
359
360 * get_device_by_label.c: Add call to ext2fs_find_block_device if
361 we can't find the device using the name given by
362 /proc/partitions. (This can happen if devfs is compiled
363 into the kernel, but not mounted.)

366
367 * dumpe2fs.c (usage): add fhx options to usage message, add -x option
368 to print out the per-group block numbers in hex, add line for
369 location of primary/backup superblock and group descriptors
370
371 * mke2fs.c: rename max to group_blk_max avoid potential macro conflict
372
Theodore Ts'oe41784e2000-08-14 14:44:15 +00003732000-08-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
374
375 * mke2fs.c (zap_sector): Change zap_bootsect to more general
376 zap_sect.
377 (main): Clear the superblock when starting mke2fs, to
378 avoid leaving the filesystem in an inconsistent state.
379

381
382 * get_device_by_label.c: Improve /proc/partitions parsing in
383 fsck, and speed up fsck -a.
384
Theodore Ts'of9e67062000-07-13 23:25:54 +00003852000-07-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
386
387 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.19
388
Theodore Ts'oa551b782000-07-13 22:05:31 +00003892000-07-13 <tytso@snap.thunk.org>
390
391 * badblocks.8.in: Added text explaining that the -n and -w options
392 are mutually exclusive.
393
394 * badblocks.c (usage): Fix usage message to make it clear that the
395 block count must be specified if the starting block is to
396 be specified. (The starting block should be a option, in
397 the long run.)
398
399 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Save and restore the currently_testing
400 variable before going into the write verification loop.
401 This avoids a loop termination problem if the last block
402 on the disk is bad. Also, turn off the SIGALRM signal
403 while restoring blocks after the user types ^C. The
404 num_saved variable is now static so that it won't get
405 clobbered by a longjmp. buf_used and bb_count are no
406 longer static, since they aren't used by the cleanup
407 routines anymore.
408
409 * badblocks.c (main): Removed an unsued varaible (buf_size).
410 Fixed bad getopt argument that didn't allow the 'b' option
411 to take an argument. Added error checking when parsing
412 the starting block number. Fixed lint warning in fscanf
413 format string.
414
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +00004152000-07-06 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
416
Theodore Ts'o19c68912000-07-07 03:25:13 +0000417 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Treat fsck.ext3 the same as
418 fsck.ext2 (because they are the same) for the purposes of
419 the progress bar display logic.
420
Theodore Ts'o45d9e2f2000-07-07 03:12:54 +0000421 * tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
422 max_mount_count is negative.
423
424 * tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
425 negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a
426 check.
427
Theodore Ts'o5b1519b2000-07-06 14:16:08 +0000428 * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
429 for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
430 privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
431 Otherwise, it's not possible to do non-proot fsck's for
432 removeable devices such as floppies if there are any
433 LABEL= or UUID= entries in /etc/fstab.
434
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000435 * badblocks.c (check_mount, main): Check to see if the filesystem
436 is mounted before doing a read/write or non-destructive
437 test. This can be overriden using the new -f option.
438
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000439 * badblocks.8.in: Update manual page to reflect that the
440 blocks-count parameter is now optional. Also properly
Theodore Ts'o981dc562000-07-06 14:13:29 +0000441 document the start-block parameter. Added documentation
442 for the -f option.
Theodore Ts'o35964b52000-07-06 13:19:43 +0000443
444 * badblocks.c (main): Allow the blocks-count parameter to be
445 optional. If it's not specified, use the size of the
446 device as a default.
447
Theodore Ts'od49a22b2000-07-06 00:31:27 +00004482000-07-05 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
449
450 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Significantly simplify the logic so that
451 it's more obviously what's going on. Fixed a few
452 potential cases which weren't handled correctly in the
453 old, overly complicated logic.
454 (flush_bufs): Now doesn't take a second argument, and
455 always forces a sync; this is required before it's really
456 safe to call BLKFLSBUF, at least for some kernels.
457
Theodore Ts'o26ab5312000-05-29 15:05:42 +00004582000-05-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
459
460 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a much more specific error message if the
461 filesystem size is defaulted and get_device_size returns a
462 size of zero. Otherwise, users get a confusing "invalid
463 argument while passed to ext2 library" error message.
464
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +00004652000-05-08 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
466
Theodore Ts'oc96e5112000-05-08 14:47:15 +0000467 * fsck.c (interpret_device): Add better error messages if a UUID=
468 or LABEL= specification is given.
469
Theodore Ts'o4ea0a112000-05-08 13:33:17 +0000470 * mke2fs.c (main): We forcibly turn off the filetype feature if
471 the OS is the hurd, since the hurd doesn't support it.
472 (And since the hurd allows the transmogrification of files
473 to special files and vice versa --- for no good reason
474 that I can understand --- it can't support the filetype
475 feature for the forseeable future, either.)
476
477 * mke2fs.c (proceed_question): Fix reversed sense of
478 proceed_question that was busted due to the
479 internationalization patch. Fixed bug where if
480 proceed_question was called twice, the input buffer wasn't
481 cleared of the previous question's newline.
482
Theodore Ts'oe2207ce2000-04-06 21:51:18 +0000483Thu Apr 6 17:50:25 2000 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@signal.thunk.org>
484
485 * badblocks.c (flush_bufs): Use fsync() if the system doesn't
486 support fdatasync().
487
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +00004882000-04-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
489
Theodore Ts'o373b8332000-04-03 16:22:35 +0000490 * badblocks.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, mke2fs.c, tune2fs.c,
491 uuidgen.c: For platforms that don't define optarg.h,
492 manually define optarg and optind.
493
Theodore Ts'o4d003982000-04-03 16:01:11 +0000494 * badblocks.8.in: Updated manual page with suggestions from David
495 Beattie.
496
497 * badblocks.c (test_nd): Generalized cleanup and bug-fixes. We
498 now explicitly clear out the signal handlers to prevent a
499 longjmp to a deactivated stack frame.
500 (test_rw): Fixed a signed vs. unsigned comparison error.
501
Theodore Ts'offe4cab2000-04-03 13:27:41 +0000502 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, lsattr.1.in,
503 mklost+found.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update Remy Card's e-mail
504 address.
505 chattr.1.in: Update which attributes aren't supported.
506

508
509 * chattr.1.in:
510 * lsattr.1.in: Change "version" to "version/generation number".
511
512 * chattr.1.in: Fix stupid file vs filesystem typo.
513
514 * tune2fs.c Fix spelling error (spare vs sparse).
515
516 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add safety check to make sure the number of
517 blocks doesn't exceed 32 bits on a 64 bit machine.
518
519 * chattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
520 Options for setting/clearings flags put into order, and
521 #ifdef's removed (since we now use a built-in header
522 file). Add error message if user tries to set and reset
523 the same flag.
524
525 * lsattr.c: Random cleanup; file-only variables are now static.
526 The -l "long" listing has been changed to look nicer.
527 Options names have been renamed to be more descriptive.

Theodore Ts'od9c56d32000-02-08 00:47:55 +0000531 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, e2label.c, findsuper.c,
532 fsck.c, get_device_by_label.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
533 mklost+found.c, nls-enable.h, partinfo.c, tune2fs.c,
534 uuidgen.c: Add Internationalization support as
535 suggested by Marco d'Itri <md@linux.it>.
536
Theodore Ts'odd018f52000-02-06 23:57:07 +0000537 * badblocks.c: Fix non-destructive read/write patches from David
538 Beattie. Non-standard variable-length automatic arrays
539 removed. Non-destrutive write test fixed so that logic is
540 clearer and more provably correct. (I believe the old
541 code had a bug where the disk data wasn't restored if it
542 was interrupted at the wrong time.)
543
544 * badblocks.8.in: Document new options in man page.
545
Theodore Ts'ob4ee1fb2000-02-02 19:08:51 +00005462000-02-02 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
547
548 * fsck.c (interpret_device): If there was an attempt to interpret
549 a device specification of the type "UUID=" or "LABEL=",
550 and it fails, check to see if /proc/partitions is
551 readable. If not, print a warning message about /proc
552 perhaps not being mounted, and exit.
553
554 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Remove unneeded #include of
555 linux/fs.h. Add #define of MAJOR if necessary.
556
557 * partinfo.c: Remove unneeded #include of linux/fs.h

Theodore Ts'o879ac922000-01-18 20:59:11 +00005642000-01-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
565
566 * badblocks.c: Folded in patches David Beattie <dbeattie@usa.net>.
567 Need to do cleanup before release: use of GCC extensions
568 (dynamic arrays); unclean coding tricks (use of || instead
569 of if statements, etc.). Comments from David Beattie:
570
571 "I added non-destructive write-testing, and quite a few
572 other features. The non-destructive write testing,
573 triggered by new "-n" command-line option, will write test
574 patterns to the disk, but only after reading data off the
575 disk into memory. Then, comparing the test patterns gives
576 a result as to whether or not those sectors are reliable.
577 Finally, the original data is written back.
578
579 To streamline this operation, I added another option, "-c
580 blocks_at_once", which will give the number of disk blocks
581 to process at one time (mnemonic--"count"). I made this
582 default to 16 (as in the read-only testing mode), and also
583 affect the read-only testing mode. Of course, read-only
584 mode needs (count * block_size) amount of memory, and
585 non-destructive read-write needs 3 times that much, so it
586 makes sense to do the calculations and not overrun
587 available RAM...I would have liked to implement and
588 auto-memory-usage heuristic, but I have no idea if it's
589 even possible to determine the amount of free memory on a
590 Unix system except by reading /proc entries, and that
591 didn't seem portable. I did NOT make this blocks_at_once
592 affect the behavior of the test_rw routine, as it is
593 processing the whole disk at once, anyway.
594
595 I *think* that I got higher detection rates on my hard
596 drive using random test data than patterned test data, so
597 my non-destructive mode initializes its test data buffer
598 randomly.
599
600 I fixed a typo in flush_bufs that caused the ioctl
601 BLKFLSBUF to never get compiled into the program.
602
603 Also, I added an "undocumented" (I didn't put it into the
604 usage message; you can if you think it's useful) "-h"
605 option to specify the host device to flush--useful if you
606 want to test out my "non-destructive" code on something
607 other than a hard drive, such as a file on a hard drive,
608 and want the host hard drive to flush.
609
610 I provided support for an "input" file (via option "-i",
611 similar to the "-o" option)...containing a list of
612 already-known bad blocks; it will skip testing those
613 blocks, thus adding speed to the bad block scan (on my
614 computer, hitting a physically bad block causes a
615 half-second-or-more freeze as the kernel waits for the
616 hard drive to give up and reset itself; pretty annoying
617 when you already know the block is bad from a previous
618 scan).
619
620 Finally, the real killer, the persistent re-scan (option:
621 "-p num_passes") that I created will, if desired,
622 persistently re-scan the drive until it has completed a
623 user-decidable number of passes in a row during which no
624 new bad blocks are found. On my drive, I would see
625 behavior that a certain percentage of bad blocks would be
626 found with each pass (it was not reliable in the defective
627 areas!), so I wanted it to check it over and over again
628 until it didn't find any more, several times. Perhaps
629 this will be useful to others. Defaults of course to
630 zero, meaning it will stop after the first pass. I used
631 "-p 2" on my drive, and it ran for 2 1/2 days...then used
632 "-p 3" a couple days later and it ran for a few more
633 hours, and since then the rest of my drive has been
634 completely reliable.
635
636 Implementation of these last two features, "-i" and "-p",
637 I did using a bb_list from libext2fs. I debated whether
638 bad blocks input through "-i" should be output into the
639 "-o" file (or stdout, of course), and decided against it,
640 but left the code to do so in place, commented out, just
641 for your information.
642
643 In order to maintain data integrity upon interruption of a
644 non-destructive-write test, I created a signal handler
645 which I install which will write back whatever original
646 disk data is in the buffers upon any of the fatal signals
647 (except SIGKILL, of course).
648
649 Of course, ideally, the new options would be reflected in
650 the badblocks manual page, but I am not experienced at
651 manual page modification; if you decide my patch to
652 badblocks should be incorporated into the distribution, I
653 could learn how to update the manpage and other
654 documentation, or you could do it for me after exercising
655 your opinions, if you have any, on exactly what the
656 command-line parameters should be called and which ones
657 should be in the distribution."

660
661 * Really fix the bug where "fsck -As" will actually allow
662 interactive fsck's. (For those people who like to do
663 interactive fsck's in the /etc/rc scripts!?!)
664
Theodore Ts'obfd21931999-11-23 13:48:58 +00006651999-11-23 <tytso@valinux.com>

671
672 * mke2fs.c: Change log2() and log10() to int_log2() and
673 int_log10() to avoid namespace collisions. Change #ifdef
674 sparc to #ifdef __sparc__.
675

691
692 * fsck.c (main): Move setting of the interactive flag to before
693 the call to check_all(), so that people who try to use
694 fsck -As can do so interactively.
695
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +00006961999-10-26 <tytso@valinux.com>

701
Theodore Ts'o3bc03661999-10-26 17:17:00 +0000702 * fsck.c (PRS, device_already_active): Add debugging hook; if the
703 environment variable FSCK_FORCE_ALL_PARALLEL is set, then
704 force all fsck runs to happen in parallel.
705
Theodore Ts'o36b01301999-10-26 14:38:36 +0000706 * get_device_by_label.c (has_right_label): Fixed bug where code
707 used a strncmp to compare a binary UUID value which may
708 contain a NULL. Fixed GCC warnings; added const to char *
709 typed variables. Eliminated non-portable use of u_char.
710
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +0000711 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix gcc warnings; add const to some char *
Theodore Ts'o9094f281999-10-26 16:42:50 +0000712 variables, including in struct mke2fs_defaults.
713 (set_fs_defaults): Changed parameter name to avoid
714 gcc warnings.
Theodore Ts'o4a600561999-10-26 14:35:51 +0000715
Theodore Ts'ob5135711999-10-26 14:33:24 +0000716 * fsck.c (wait_one): Fix gcc warnings; add #include for ctype.h,
717 add const to char * variables, and use NOARGS to declare
718 functions that take no arguments. Also fix a memory leak
719 in execute() where we weren't freeing argv[] after forking
720 the child process.
721
Theodore Ts'o36caf251999-10-26 14:29:22 +0000722 * chattr.c: Add hack to compile in a definition for S_ISLNK so we
723 can successfully compile even with warnings turned on.
724
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +00007251999-10-25 <tytso@valinux.com>
726
727 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Capitalized Hurd to make the GNU types
728 happy.
Theodore Ts'oe6597041999-10-26 02:30:16 +0000729 (PRS): Use __u64 instead of long long for portability
730 reasons. Also moved #include of sys/stat.h inside #ifdef
731 HAVE_LINUX_MAJOR_H for portability reasons.
Theodore Ts'oad6783d1999-10-26 01:58:54 +0000732
733 * fsck.c (execute): Fix really stupid bug in the linked list
734 management which caused fsck in parallel mode to go into
735 an infinite loop.
736

Theodore Ts'o614fdfd1999-10-23 03:19:51 +0000739 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.16
740
7411999-10-22 <tytso@valinux.com>
742
Theodore Ts'o896938d1999-10-23 01:04:50 +0000743 * tune2fs.c (main): Add a new option -O which allows the user to
744 set and clear certain "safe" filsystem feature flags.
745 Currently, the only ones which are supported for
746 modification are sparse_superblock and filetype.
747
748 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add new option -O which allows the user to
749 request filesystems with specific filesystem options. By
750 default on 2.2 and later systems, create filesystems that

754
755 * badblocks.8.in, chattr.1.in, dumpe2fs.8.in, e2label.8.in,
756 fsck.8.in, lsattr.1.in, mke2fs.8.in, mklost+found.8.in,
757 tune2fs.8.in, uuidgen.1.in: Update man page to use a more standard
758 format (bold option flags and italicized variables), as
759 suggested by Andreas Dilger (adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca)
760
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +00007611999-10-14 <tytso@valinux.com>
762
Theodore Ts'o671cbfa1999-10-20 18:14:23 +0000763 * tune2fs.c (main): Fix typo (double spaces) in messages regarding
764 changing the sparse superblock option
765
Theodore Ts'o7f4bb6c1999-10-20 18:11:01 +0000766 * fsck.c (wait_one): If the fsck process just started, wait a
767 second before sending a SIGUSR1, to give it a chance
768 to set the signal handler; otherwise, fsck will die on an
769 unhandled SIGUSR1.
770

Theodore Ts'o76714331999-10-20 18:06:29 +0000772
773 * mke2fs.c (show_stats): Fix display bug when printing out the
774 number of superblocks. Suggested by Yann Dirson.
775
Theodore Ts'o27401561999-09-14 20:11:19 +00007761999-09-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
777
778 * partinfo.c: Fix minor compilation bugs pointed out by Yann
779 Dirson.
780
781 * mke2fs.c: Don't turn on sparse superblocks by default on pre-2.2
782 kernels.
783
784 * mke2fs.8.in: Add the possible valid block sizes for mke2fs.
785 Document the -n flag, and the new defaults for the -s
786 flag.
787
788 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Add new options -f (force) and -h
789 (header-only).
790
7911999-08-13 <tytso@valinux.com>
792
793 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Fix logic for turning on/off the sparse
794 superblock option.
795
7961999-07-18 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o657cb971999-07-30 23:19:10 +0000797
798 * Release of E2fsprogs 1.15
799
Theodore Ts'o50787ea1999-07-19 15:30:21 +00008001999-07-18 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
801
802 * mke2fs.c (PRS, set_fs_defaults): Add new option -T which allows
803 the user to specify the how the filesystem is to be used.
804 Mke2fs now chooses the filesystem parameters automatically
805 based on the size of the filesystem and the intended use
806 of the filesystem. Add new option -n which simply goes
807 through the calculations to determine the parameters of
808 the filesystem the system would make.
809
8101999-07-18 <tytso@valinux.com>
811
812 * fsck.c, fsck.h: Add support for new option -C. This option will
813 automatically manage e2fsck processes so that they will
814 print completion/progress bars. If multiple filesystems
815 are being checked, arrange to make sure that only one
816 e2fsck process is displaying a progress bar at a time.
817
8181999-07-08 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o9f10a7b1999-07-16 10:41:36 +0000819
820 * badblocks.c (do_test): Don't complain if the write error occurs
821 on a non-block boundary. This is perfectly common when
822 using blocksizes larger than 1k.
823
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +00008241999-07-03 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o5dbb0721999-07-03 06:16:06 +0000825
826 * uuidgen.c: Add option parsing so that user can ask for either a
827 time-based UUID or a random-based UUID.
828
Theodore Ts'oc54b3c31999-07-03 07:20:06 +00008291999-07-02 <tytso@valinux.com>
Theodore Ts'o2d8defd1999-07-03 01:59:42 +0000830
831 * fsck.c: Added support for LABEL= and UUID= specifications for
832 the filesystem's device, to match what recent mount
833 programs can support. Also, close stdin when doing fsck
834 -A or when checking more than one filesystem at a time, so
835 that e2fsck doesn't try to ask interactive questions if
836 the filesystem appears to be mounted.
837
838 * get_device_by_label.c: New file added to support LABEL=foo and
839 UUID=bar type specifications.
840
Theodore Ts'o00eedba1999-07-03 00:45:58 +00008411999-07-01 <tytso@valinux.com>
842
843 * badblocks.c: Make the "done" string include enough spaces to
844 clear out a large block number.
845
Theodore Ts'oca3c3281999-06-29 14:37:35 +00008461999-06-29 <tytso@valinux.com>
847
848 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Allow a filesystem to be made even if it
849 appears mounted if the force option is given.
850
Theodore Ts'oe72a9ba1999-06-25 15:40:18 +00008511999-06-24 <tytso@valinux.com>
852
853 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix typo in man page which caused the badblocks
854 command to not show up in the "SEE ALSO" section.
855
Theodore Ts'oe2423cc1999-06-18 00:51:31 +00008561999-05-02 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
857
858 * findsuper.c: Added documentation from aeb@cwi.nl; some minor
859 code cleanups.
860
Theodore Ts'o02e7dd91999-06-18 00:48:41 +00008611999-05-20 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
862
863 * dumpe2fs.c, dumpe2fs.8.in: Added new command-line options which
864 allow a filesystem expert to specify the superblock and
865 blocksize when opening a filesystem. This is mainly
866 useful when examining the remains of a toasted filesystem.
867
Theodore Ts'o5d45d801999-03-16 19:35:19 +00008681999-03-11 Andreas Dilger <adilger@enel.ucalgary.ca>
869
870 * uuidgen.c, uuidgen.1.in: Created command-line utility to
871 generate UUIDs.
872
8731999-03-14 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
874
875 * fsck.c (fsck_device, execute): Don't dereference a null pointer
876 when checking a filesystem not in /etc/fstab.
877
Theodore Ts'o7d5633c1999-02-09 08:14:28 +00008781999-02-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
879
880 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Print an error message if the user passes
881 in a device or directory name which isn't found in /etc/fstab.
882 Allow the location of /etc/fstab to be overridden by
883 the FSTAB_FILE environment variable.
884
8851999-01-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
886
887 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Add kludge code so that when the
888 MKE2FS_SYNC environment variable is set, mke2fs will sync
889 every MKE2FS_SYNC block groups, while it is writing out
890 the inode tables. This is to work around a VM bug in the
891 2.0 kernel. I've heard a report that a RAID user was able
892 to trigger it even using a 2.2 kernel.
893
Theodore Ts'oee922991999-01-16 05:39:12 +00008941999-01-16 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
895
896 * fsck.c (execute, wait_one): Modified routines so that they
897 accurately create an fsck_instance even when the noexecute
898 flag is set. This allows for accurate debugging of the
899 fsck pass structure.
900 (check_all): When the verbose flag is given twice, print
901 debugging information about when fsck is waiting for jobs
902 to finish.
903
Theodore Ts'o7953f611999-01-09 05:03:52 +00009041999-01-09 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

914
915 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the pass number field is missing, it
916 needs to be treated as zero.
917

921 inodes he/she wishes.
922
Theodore Ts'oa88fa0c1999-01-05 07:02:39 +0000923 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Only print the version information for the
924 program if the -V option is given.
925
926 * chattr.c: Ignore symbolic links when doing a recursive descent
927 through a directory.
928
Theodore Ts'o93ab9d71999-01-02 04:04:42 +00009291999-01-01 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
930
931 * fsck.c (load_fs_info, parse_fstab_line): Ignore fstab lines
932 are commented out. Also allow blank lines in the
933 /etc/fstab file.

935 filesystem which we are checking (user request).
936
9371998-12-30 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
938
939 * mke2fs.c: Add definition of SCSI_BLK_MAJOR if not defined, for
940 compatibility with Linux 1.2.13 header files.
941
Theodore Ts'o556ad131998-12-19 08:10:58 +00009421998-12-15 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

947
948 * mke2fs.8.in: Fixed stupid typo ("Raid options are _comma_
949 seperated", instead of common separated)
950
Theodore Ts'o5a679c81998-12-03 16:40:38 +00009511998-12-03 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
952
953 * Makefile.in: Updated dependencies.
954
9551998-11-27 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
956
957 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Parse /etc/fstab ourselves, instead of
958 relying on getmntent(). This has the advantage of
959 allowing us to properly handle missing pass numbers correctly.
960
Theodore Ts'o1dde43f1998-11-14 04:18:28 +00009611998-11-13 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

964
965 * mke2fs.c (show_stats, write_inode_tables): Use the log10
966 function to calculate the display of block numbers so that
967 things look nice on an 80 character display.
968
9691998-10-12 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
970
971 * mke2fs.c (usage): Add the sparse-super-flag to the usage

990 * dumpe2fs.c (usage):
991 * badblocks.c (usage): Remove volatile from declaration.
992
993 * fsck.c: Change use of strdup to be string_copy, since we don't
994 trust what glibc is doing with strdup. (Whatever it is,
995 it isn't pretty.)
996
9971998-06-19 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
998
999 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add a -V option which prints the version number

1008
1009 * Makefile.in: Change to use new installation directory variables
1010 convention. Fix uninstall rules to take $(DESTDIR) into
1011 account. Remove cat8dir and cat1dir from the installdirs
1012 target, since modern man package don't necessarily put the
1013 cat directory in /usr/man/cat?.
1014
Theodore Ts'oa789d841998-03-30 01:20:55 +000010151998-03-29 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1020
10211998-03-28 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1022
1023 * chattr.1.in: Document that the append-only attribute may
1024 only be set or cleared by the superuser.
1025
1026 * Update all manual pages to that the availability section is
1027 up-to-date.
1028
1029 * e2label.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to state that

1031 be truncated.
1032
1033 * e2label.c (change_label), tune2fs.c (main): If the label is
1034 longer than 16 characters, print a warning message stating
1035 that the label will be truncated.
1036
1037 * mke2fs.c (PRS): If the user specifies a filesystem size, and
1038 it's larger than the apparent size of the device, print a
1039 warning message and ask if the user wants to proceed.
1040
Theodore Ts'obbfa3aa1998-03-21 07:12:46 +000010411998-03-21 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1052
1053 * badblocks.8: Update documentation to note that output format
1054 of badblocks is suitable for use with e2fsck -l or
1055 mke2fs -l.
1056
1057 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Fix bug so that all groups with
1058 bad superblock backup blocks are printed (not just the
1059 first one).
1060
Theodore Ts'oca8abba1998-01-19 14:55:24 +00001061Mon Dec 1 17:01:04 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1075 an int, so that it won't lose on platforms where char is
1076 unsigned.
1077
Theodore Ts'od163b091997-10-03 17:42:28 +00001078Fri Oct 3 13:38:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>

1088 * dumpe2fs.c (main):
1089 * chattr.c (main):
1090 * badblocks.c (main): Declare main to return an int, as required.
1091 Make sure main always ends with an exit(0). (Some
1092 programs weren't doing this, and thus were returning a
1093 random exit value.)
1094
Theodore Ts'oab6b8ab1997-07-14 19:28:55 +00001095Mon Jul 14 15:27:29 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

1124
1125 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.10
1126
1127Thu Apr 24 09:52:47 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1128
1129 * mke2fs.c: Added new option -R, which specifies RAID options.
1130 Currently the only supported RAID option is "stride" which
1131 specifies the stripe width in RAID filesystem. This is
1132 used to aid in the placement of the inode and block
1133 bitmaps.
1134
1135 * mke2fs.8.in, tune2fs.8.in: Added warnings that the sparse
1136 superblock option isn't yet supported by most kernels.
1137
1138Wed Apr 23 22:42:51 1997 Theodre Ts'o <tytso@localhost.mit.edu>
1139
1140 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Make the default filesystem revision be 0, not
1141 1. (Since some people are still worried about 1.2.13
1142 compatibility).
1143
1144Thu Apr 17 12:23:38 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1145
1146 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.09

1149
1150 * chattr.1.in: Updated man page so that the 'A' attribute is
1151 specified everywhere.
1152
1153 * chattr.c (usage): Added usage message for the 'A' attribute.
1154
1155Fri Apr 11 18:56:26 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1156
1157 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.08
1158
Theodore Ts'o521e3681997-04-29 17:48:10 +00001159Thu Apr 10 07:08:03 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1160
1161 * dumpe2fs.c (list_desc): List the offsets of the inode and block
1162 bitmaps, and the inode table. List the block boundaries
1163 for the groups.
1164
1165Sat Apr 5 11:55:52 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1166
1167 * tune2fs.c (main): Implement the -s flag allows the user to
1168 set and reset the sparse superblock flag.
1169
1170 * mke2fs.c (PRS): By default generate DYNAMIC revision
1171 filesystems. The -s flag controls whether or not the
1172 sparse superblock flag is set.
1173 (PRS): Change to allow the user to specify the true
1174 maximum number of blocks per group to reflect the
1175 blocksize.
1176
Theodore Ts'o19c78dc1997-04-29 16:17:09 +00001177Wed Mar 12 13:32:05 1997 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
1178
1179 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.07
1180
1181Thu Mar 6 17:15:05 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1182
1183 * mke2fs.c (create_root_dir): Set the root directory's i_uid and
1184 i_gid to be the real user and group id.
1185
1186Tue Mar 4 10:14:33 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1187
1188 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add more intelligent error
1189 messages when the device doesn't exist.
1190
1191Sat Mar 1 10:43:32 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1192
1193 * fsck.c (main): Fix bug where the PATH environment variable isn't
1194 set when it is unset.
1195
1196Tue Jan 14 12:30:45 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1197
1198 * mke2fs.c (write_inode_tables): Fixed bug in write_inode_tables
1199 where a loop variable was getting reused in a nested loop.
1200 This caused the inode table to not be correctly
1201 initialized.
1202
1203Thu Jan 2 00:00:37 1997 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1204
1205 * lsattr.c, chattr.c: Include string.h, since we use memcpy().
1206
1207 * findsuper.c: Use time_t for ctime(), not __u32.
1208
1209Sat Dec 28 23:39:18 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1210
1211 * badblocks.c: Adapted -vv modifications from Rik Faith so that
1212 they frequently update the block number field.
1213
1214 * badblocks.8.in: Document the optional start-block parameter
1215
1216Mon Oct 14 11:52:58 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1217
1218 * mke2fs.c: Updated to use new ext2fs_allocate_tables() function.
1219
1220Tue Oct 8 02:02:03 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1221
1222 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.06
1223
Theodore Ts'o5c576471997-04-29 15:29:49 +00001224Mon Oct 7 00:56:24 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1225
1226 * chattr.1.in: Documented the 'A' (noatime) attribute.
1227
1228 * dumpe2fs.c (main): Change EXT2_SWAP to EXT2_FLAG_SWAP for
1229 consistency's sake.
1230
1231Sun Sep 22 16:18:47 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1232
1233 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Add support for the 'A' (noatime) flag.
1234
1235Thu Sep 12 15:23:07 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1236
1237 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.05
1238
Theodore Ts'o1e3472c1997-04-29 14:53:37 +00001239Sat Sep 7 07:34:11 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1240
1241 * tune2fs.c (main): Add support for new option -C, which sets the
1242 current number of mounts.
1243 (main): Allow the interval to be specified in seconds,
1244 mostly for debugging.
1245
1246Tue Aug 27 17:27:43 1996 Miles Bader <miles@gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1247
1248 * Makefile.in (SMANPAGES): Use @FSCK_MAN@ instead of fsck.8.
1249 (SPROGS): Use @FSCK_PROG@ instead of fsck.
1250
1251Thu Aug 22 00:51:44 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1252
1253 * mke2fs.c (zap_bootblock): Don't do zap_bootblock on a
1254 sparc.
1255
1256Tue Aug 20 00:15:46 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1257
1258 * chattr.c (main): Fixed bug so that chattr -v works. (Bug report
1259 and fix sent by Charles Howes, chowes@eznet.ca)
1260
1261Fri Aug 9 11:52:42 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1262
1263 * tune2fs.8.in:
1264 * tune2fs.c: Added support for the -L option which sets the volume
1265 label, the -M option which sets the last mounted
1266 directory, and the -U option which sets the filesystem UUID.
1267
1268 * mke2fs.8.in:
1269 * mke2fs.c: Added support for the -o option, which overrides the
1270 creator OS. Generate a UUID for the filesystem, if
1271 applicable. Added support for the -L option which sets
1272 the volume label, and the -M option which sets the last
1273 mounted directory.
1274
1275Sat Jun 22 17:43:17 1996 Remy Card <card@bbj.linux.eu.org>
1276
1277 * chattr.c (decode_arg): Integrated Michael Nonweiler's fix to
1278 avoid a segmentation fault when the "-v" option is used
1279 and no version number is specified.
1280
Theodore Ts'o62c06f71997-04-29 14:34:47 +00001281Thu May 16 11:12:30 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1282
1283 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.04
1284
1285Wed May 15 21:15:43 1996 Theodore Ts'o <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1286
1287 * Makefile.in (fsck): fsck doesn't need to be linked with the ext2
1288 libraries.
1289
Theodore Ts'o7f88b041997-04-26 14:48:50 +00001290Wed Mar 27 00:33:40 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1291
1292 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.03
1293
1294Thu Mar 7 03:43:20 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1295
1296 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Add (for development only) support to
1297 specify revision and inode size of the new filesystem.
1298
1299Tue Mar 5 03:51:35 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1300
1301 * mke2fs.8.in: Fix a few minor typo's in the man page.
1302
1303 * mke2fs.c (reserve_inodes): Add support for dynamic first inode
1304 revision.
1305
1306Mon Feb 5 22:19:49 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1307
1308 * fsck.c (check_all, PRS): Added new flag -P, which turns on the
1309 parallel root option. This allows you to check the root
1310 filesystem in parallel with the other filesystems. Note
1311 that this is not the safest thing in the world to do,
1312 since if the root filesystem is in doubt things like
1313 the e2fsck executable might be corrupted! But some
1314 sysadmins, who don't want to repartition the root
1315 filesystem to be small and compact, may really want this
1316 option turned on.
1317
Theodore Ts'o74becf31997-04-26 14:37:06 +00001318Wed Jan 31 11:06:08 1996 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1319
1320 * Release of E2fsprogs version 1.02
1321
1322Tue Oct 30 21:14:12 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1323
1324 * mke2fs.c (check_plausibility): Add check to warn user if they
1325 are trying to mke2fs the whole disk. (/dev/hda
1326 vs. /dev/hda1)
1327
1328Fri Dec 15 19:09:56 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1329
1330 * fsck.c (check_all): If we break out of the loop because we are
1331 serializing and have just started at fsck we haven't
1332 finished the pass. We need to go round again in case there
1333 are more filesystems to be done in this pass. (Patch
1334 submitted by Mike Jagdis)
1335
1336Sat Dec 9 10:07:16 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1337
1338 * dumpe2fs.c (in_use): test_bit() was renamed to
1339 ext2fs_test_bit().
1340
Theodore Ts'o297f47a1997-04-26 14:25:20 +00001341Mon Oct 30 20:21:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1342
1343 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Check fstype instead of type; this was a
1344 stupid typo which caused coredumps in some cases.
1345
Theodore Ts'oa418d3a1997-04-26 14:00:26 +00001346Thu Oct 26 12:05:18 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1347
1348 * Makefile.in (install): Strip programs when they are installed.
1349
1350Fri Aug 18 15:10:40 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1351
1352 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Move call of check_mount() from main() to PRS(),
1353 so we do the check to see if the filesystem is mounted
1354 *before* we try to determine the size of the device.
1355
1356Wed Sep 6 23:34:07 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1357
1358 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Load the informations from /etc/fstab in
1359 the same order.
1360
1361Thu Aug 17 22:33:09 1995 <tytso@rsts-11.mit.edu>
1362
1363 * mke2fs.c (check_mount): Use the new ext2fs_check_if_mounted()
1364 function to determine if the device is mounted.
1365
1366 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Change call to use the new
1367 ext2fs_get_device_size() function in order to determine
1368 the size of the filesystem. Remove get_size() and
1369 is_valid_offset(), which are no longer called.
1370
1371Fri Aug 11 08:26:24 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1372
1373 * fsck.c (fsck_device): Make sure fstype has been set by the user
1374 and that it does not begin with "no" and the user has
1375 specified exactly one type before using it as the type to
1376 check.
1377
1378Fri Aug 11 14:17:18 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1379
1380 * badblocks.8:
1381 * chattr.1:
1382 * dumpe2fs.8:
1383 * fsck.8:
1384 * lsattr.1:
1385 * mke2fs.8:
1386 * mklost+found.8:
1387 * tune2fs.8: Updated date and version number.
1388
1389Thu Aug 10 14:18:36 1995 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1390
1391 * tune2fs.c: Fixed a bug which prevented the use of user and group
1392 names with the -g and -u options. Thanks to Jean Christophe
1393 ANDRE <progfou@mycrob.cafard.freenix.fr>.
1394
1395 * mke2fs.8:
1396 * tune2fs.8: Fixed a spelling error in Ted's name :-)
1397
1398Wed Aug 9 20:41:54 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1399
1400 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Divide the size by
1401 EXT2_BLOCK_SIZE(&param), instead of assuming that the
1402 blocksize is always 1024 bytes.
1403
1404Sat Aug 5 12:00:51 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1405
1406 * mke2fs.c (PRS): Use malloc() instead of alloca() --- alloca() is
1407 not portable!! In any case putenv() in some systems must
1408 take a static character array or malloc()'ed memory;
1409 passing memory allocated using alloca() to putenv() is not
1410 advisable.
1411
1412 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc):
1413 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Use malloc() instead of alloca() ---
1414 alloca is not portable!
1415
1416 * fsck.c (fsck_device): If the filesystem type is specified by the
1417 user using the -t option, let it override the type in
1418 /etc/fstab.
1419
1420 * fsck.c (strdup): Don't build strdup() if the system defines it.
1421
1422Mon Jun 12 19:15:10 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@dcl)
1423
1424 * chattr.c, lsattr.c: Include <sys/types.h> for <dirent.h>'s
1425 benefit.
1426
1427 * The $(UPROGS) go in bin, not sbin.
1428
1429 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1430 tune2fs.c: Don't include <getopt.h> if it doesn't exist.
1431
1432Mon Jun 12 16:36:04 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@dcl>
1433
1434 * badblocks.c, chattr.c, dumpe2fs.c, fsck.c, lsattr.c, mke2fs.c,
1435 tune2fs.c: Only include getopt.h if HAVE_GETOPT_H is defined.
1436
1437Sat Jun 10 23:37:09 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@lurch.mit.edu>
1438
1439 * chattr.c: Include errno.h, since we use errno
1440
1441 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If HAVE_MNTENT_H is not defined,
1442 explicitly initialize filesys_info to be NULL.
1443
1444 * mke2fs.c: Include the stdio.h and errno.h header files
1445
1446Thu Jun 8 13:25:23 1995 Miles Bader <miles@churchy.gnu.ai.mit.edu>
1447
1448 * mke2fs.c: Only include <linux/fs.h> if we can.
1449 (get_size): Don't try to use the BLKGETSIZE ioctl unless it's defined.
1450 (check_mount): Only check to see if the device is mounted if
1451 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1452
1453 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): Only try to get info about filesystems if
1454 HAVE_MNTENT_H is defined (by configure).
1455 (main): Allocate space for a new fsck_path instead of append to a
1456 statically sized buffer.
1457 (PRS): Use alloca to allocate the new path string, instead of
1458 having a fixed size buffer (which was the wrong size anyway).
1459
1460 * chattr.c (chattr_dir_proc): Use alloca to allocate space for a
1461 filename instead of using a fixed-size buffer.
1462 * lsattr.c (lsattr_dir_proc): Ditto.
1463 * mklost+fond.c (main): Calculate the actual needed size for the
1464 path buffer instead of using MAXPATHLEN (which not all systems have).
1465
1466 * badblocks.c: Only include linux include files if we have them.
1467 (flush_bufs): New function to flush a block device, optionally
1468 syncing it first. This replaces other copies of this code.
1469 (test_ro): Replace calls to ioctl with flush_bufs().
1470 (test_rw): Ditto.
1471
1472 * Makefile.in: Rewritten to conform to GNU coding standards and
1473 support separate compilation directories.
1474
Theodore Ts'of3db3561997-04-26 13:34:30 +00001475Sat Mar 11 10:59:58 1995 Theodore Y. Ts'o <tytso@localhost>
1476
1477 * mke2fs.c (main, zap_bootblock): Added new function
1478 zap_bootblock() which clears the first 512 bytes of the
1479 filesystem. This protects the filesystem from being
1480 misidentified as a MS-DOS FAT filesystem.
1481
1482 * badblocks.c (alarm_intr, test_ro, test_rw): Increase the space
1483 allocated for printing the block numbers, so that the
1484 display doesn't get corrupted when running badblocks on a
1485 very large partition.
1486
1487 * badblocks.c (do_test, test_ro, test_rw): Added missing cast to
1488 ext2_loff_t, so that when checking a large device,
1489 spurious seek errors aren't reported.
1490
1491 * mke2fs.c (count_blocks): Declare mid to be of type ext2_loff_t
1492 instead of type int, so that it works for filesystems
1493 greater than 2 GB. (Fortunately count_blocks is only
1494 called if the device does not support the BLKGETSIZE
1495 ioctl, which most do.)
1496
1497 * fsck.c (ignore): Add check to ignore filesystems with a pass
1498 number of zero. (This check was accidentally deleted at
1499 during 0.5b development.)
1500
1501Sat Dec 31 00:47:16 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1502
1503 * mke2fs.c (new_table_block, alloc_tables, PRS, main): Add a new
1504 option, -S, which only writes the superblock and group
1505 descriptors. Useful for recovering when all of the
1506 superblocks are corrupted somehow (as a last ditch
1507 measure).
1508
1509 Also, don't bother initializing the bitmap blocks in
1510 alloc_tables(), since they will be overwritten at the end
1511 anyway. (Should speed up mke2fs by a little.)
1512
1513Tue Dec 6 02:20:55 1994 <tytso@rsx-11.mit.edu>
1514
1515 * fsck.c (main): Fix stupid typo where a null inst would be freed.
1516
1517 * fsck.c (wait_one): Check WIFEXITED on status before trying to
1518 extract the exit status. In other cases, return
1519 FSCK_ERROR if the back end processor exited with a signal.
1520
1521Tue Nov 15 10:20:00 1994 Remy Card <card@bbj>
1522
1523 * tune2fs.c (main): Fixed a bug which prevented the use of the
1524 new options.
1525 Added the `w' (week) suffix recognition in the check interval.
1526
1527Sun Nov 13 15:58:48 1994 (tytso@rsx-11)
1528
1529 * fsck.c (load_fs_info): If the user has an obviously old
1530 /etc/fstab file, issue a warning message and assume that
1531 all partitions should be checked.
1532

1536 structures.
1537

1550Wed Aug 17 21:55:03 1994 Remy Card (card@bbj)
1551
1552 * badblocks.c (test_rw): Added verbose output like in the
1553 read-only test.
1554
1555 (do_test and test_rw): Use the llseek system call if available.
1556
1557 * chattr.c: Added support for new attributes.
1558
1559 * lsattr.c: Added support for long format.
1560
1561 * mke2fs.c (usage): Fixed bogus usage message.
1562

1565Wed Aug 17 10:50:57 1994 Theodore Y. Ts'o (tytso@rt-11)
1566
1567 * mke2fs.c (handle_bad_blocks): Check to see if a bad block is
1568 where a backup superblock/group descriptor is stored. If so,
1569 print a warning message and adjust the superblock counts so that
1570 they are correct. (Otherwise, the bad block will get counted
1571 twice and the # of free blocks count will be wrong.)
1572
1573 (alloc_tables): Removed code which calcualated the free block
1574 statistics, which was moved to lib/ext2fs/initialize.c. This
1575 allows the bad block code to adjust the group descriptor
1576 statistics if necessary.
